The toughest division in the NFL promises to be exciting and competitive again in 2025.
Here are my predictions for each team:
First Place: Baltimore Ravens 12-5
- The Ravens are the best coached and most talented team in the AFC North
- John Harbaugh has built a Growth Mindset. Athletes that the Ravens select improve year to year at a greater rate than any other NFL team.
- Lamar Jackson is amazing, determined and it's only a matter of time before he has a Super Bowl ring
- The Ravens defensive backfield was a weakness in 2024. This season the addition of Jaire Alexander and Malaki Starks transform that group.
- Mike Green will help an already strong defensive line.
Second Place: Cincinnati Bengals 11-6
- The Bengals have Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins and Chase Brown. 30 points or more is a probability every time they step on the field
- Al Golden needs to get the Bengals defense to improve from terrible to mediocre. A scheme that keeps things simple and Shermar Stewart flashing potential should help the Bengals keep their opponents under 24 points a game often enough to battle the Ravens for first all season long.
Third Place: Pittsburgh Steelers 10-7
- The Steelers have Mike Tomlin
- The Steelers D will be as great as they always are
- Aaron Rodgers to DK Metcalf - all year long!
Last Place: Cleveland Browns 5-12
- The NFL hung a miserable schedule on the Browns, as they continue to punish the Browns for $230,000,000 fully guaranteed. With that tough start, the Browns are bound to play well and still start 0-6 or 1-5 and it'll be onto Dillon Gabriel, who won't be ready for prime time.
